We hope you had a great Summer! Now that the Fall cool air is setting in, we can't think of a better way to begin enjoying the weather than with a dance workshop!

In Association with LOTUS MUSIC AND DANCE STUDIOS

'DANCING IS FUN FOR ALL DANCERS'

Transforming rigidity into giving, receiving & creativity 

 

with Leesa Mohanty

                     Dancer/Author/Art Activist


Inspired by the structure, discipline, and sometimes regimented way of learning Classical Indian Dance, Leesa Mohanty began teaching her students and leading workshops in India/Malaysia using techniques to make learning and teaching dance fun while maintaining authenticity and developing artistically as a dancer. Her expertise in abhinaya/dramatic theory laid the foundation for the unique games and well crafted exercises in her book "Dancing is Fun".

Leesa will guide and share with us the methods of going within yourself to further discover and develop your personality as a dancer. Participants will learn how to transform the rigidity of mechanical dancing into a true sense of freedom and confidence in your movements/expressions-  even through the challenging tasks of remembering a dance sequence, staying on rhythm, or portraying a character. A great workshop for dancers/teachers/performing artists!
